In Sebastian Junger's "The Perfect Storm," the actual non-fiction account is much more gripping than a fictional tale. However, it is important to remember that there is still a great deal of assumption and guessing in this "non-fiction" novel. The book is written in a chronology that considers the the last days of the Andrea Gail. The captain of the Andrea Gail is Billy Tyne. He is a well known Gloucester fisherman. His crew is Bobby...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/do-you-think-stuggle-survival-presented-this-283287Sun, 9 Oct 2011 10:18:29 PSTDo you think the struggle for survival presented in this nonfictional...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/do-you-think-stuggle-survival-presented-this-283287
Do you think the struggle for survival presented in this nonfictional account is more or less gripping than a fictional tale would be?http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/do-you-think-stuggle-survival-presented-this-283287#1October 9, 2011, 6:34 am PSTwhere can i find chapter summaries for free on the perfect storm?http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/where-can-find-chapter-summaries-for-free-perfect-70447

The information you are looking for is in the chapter titled "The Zero-Moment Point." The entire chapter deals with the subject of drowning, so there is not enough space here to "post" the description, as you ask. The title refers to "the point of no return," that is, the moment at which a boat begins to capsize. The author describes what that moment is like and what happens when a boat is flooded. He then...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/can-someone-post-description-what-its-like-26141Fri, 13 Jun 2008 01:07:26 PSTCan someone post the description from "The Perfect Storm" of...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/can-someone-post-description-what-its-like-26141

The main conflict is defeating the storm--actually a convergence of three storms onto one geographic location. Yikes! Other conflicts include the shrimpers' need to make more money by taking one last trip out to sea even though it was the dangerous season.The shrimper's wives obviously don't want them to go out again as they worry and don't like to be alone.The shrimp boat owner encourages one last trip as he wants more money as well.The...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/main-conflict-book-perfect-storm-11843Thu, 15 Nov 2007 05:29:40 PSTthe main conflict in the book the perfect stormhttp://www.enotes.com/homework-help/main-conflict-book-perfect-storm-11843

The most obvious parallel is that both stories deal with a shipwreck, but I imagine you are looking for something a bit deeper than that. Junger tells a story of what happened to the ship the Andrea Gale. He is working off of pieces of information only, and thus speculates in order to fill in the gaps. He imagines what would have happened to the boat, how it could have been sunk, what the men would have been doing (based on their...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/can-you-identify-any-links-between-sebastian-2253Tue, 12 Jun 2007 21:11:16 PSTCan you identify any links between Sebastian Junger's "The Perfect...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/can-you-identify-any-links-between-sebastian-2253
